Why Dagster: how does it compare to other systems like Airflow, and why we started the transition to using Dagster.
Dagster concepts: what is a Software Defined Asset and why do I need them in my life?
Dagster walk-through: constructing a simple asset catalog in Dagster. This might also cover some of the often-associated technologies, like DuckDB and/or Polars.
You're holding it wrong: issues we have run into in using Dagster for more complex data flows.
